The threat of rain and wind didn’t stop the vendors at the Melrose Trading Post from setting up and bringing some fantastic pieces.

Teodoro had this unique seat… I definitely had to fight the urge of purchasing it.

Luckily it went home with a happy customer!

One of our facebook friends said she would paint it pink, reupholster it and add drapes. What would you do to this piece?

Kit is a vendor who’s booth always looks so whimsical. His succulent arrangements vary from glass globes of all sizes, cages, beautiful pottery and more.

This particular caged arrangement always catches my attention. It needs a good home!

Jose brought this re-purposer’s dream come true. Talk about being green… the bottom is salvaged from an antique sewing machine. The top is an altered shelf. If you look closely, the shelves have been customized to accommodate bottles and a glass holder has been added underneath. Who needs a bar cart when you can have this? I believe this piece may be making a reappearance next week…
